The new season will premiere March 19. Hosts Tom Bergeron and Brooke Burke Charvet joined "GMA" co-anchor Robin Roberts at the El Capitan Theater in Los Angeles for the live announcement of the contestants.

The stars also met their professional partners, with whom they will begin training right away. Defending pro champion Karina Smirnoff, who won her first mirror ball trophy last season with celeb J.R. Martinez, is partnered up this time with DeGraw. Pro Cheryl Burke, who sambaed with Rob Kardashian into the finals during season 13, will team up with Levy for this round, and three-time champ Derek Hough will dance with Menounos.
